Graduate Alumni

We are proud of our graduates. They have won prizes for
their theses, and have found mathematical jobs in and out of
universities and colleges. This list shows where most of our activity
has been in the past; recent hirings may change some of those patterns.
In most of the cases where the thesis advisor is not a current member
of the Mathematics Department, the supervisor was a member of another
department at UBC.
